Ella dice que en sus sueños
She says that in her dreams
Aparezco antes que todo
I appear before everything
Antes de cerrar los ojos
Before closing her eyes
Oh! Da gracias a la vida, qué suerte
Oh! Thank life, what luck
El me dice que en sus sueños
He tells me that in his dreams
Soy rocío que se esconde
I am the dew that hides
Como la primera noche
Like the first night
Como el día que despierta y se duerme
Like the day that wakes and then sleeps
El dice que me quiere, ella dice que me quiere
He says he loves me, she says she loves me
Que sin mi amor se muere, que sin mi amor se muere
That without my love, he dies, that without my love, he dies
¡oh, cielo!
Oh, heaven!
Gracias a la vida por tenerte
Thank you for life for having you
El dice que me quiere, ella dice que me quiere
He says he loves me, she says she loves me
Que sin mi amor se muere, que sin mi amor se muere
That without my love he dies, that without my love he dies
¡oh, cielo!
Oh, heaven!
Lo mejor ha sido conocerte
The best has been knowing you
Ella dice que sus besos
She says that her kisses
Sólo llegan a mi boca
Only reach my lips
Que mi risa le provoca
That my laughter drives her wild
Y su amor como una hoguera se enciende
And her love ignites like a bonfire
El me dice que su cuerpo
He tells me that his body
Va rodando por mi cuerpo
Rolls over my body
Que se cuelga entre mi pecho
Hangs between my chest
Y alimenta la ansiedad de tenerme
And feeds the anxiety of having me
El dice que me quiere, ella dice que me quiere
He says he loves me, she says she loves me
Que sin mi amor se muere, que sin mi amor se muere
That without my love he dies, that without my love he dies
¡oh, cielo!
Oh, heaven!
Lo mejor ha sido conocerte
The best has been meeting you
El dice que me quiere, ella dice que me quiere
He says he loves me, she says she loves me
Que sin mi amor se muere, que sin mi amor se muere
That without my love he dies, that without my love he dies
¡oh, cielo!
Oh, heaven!
Gracias a la vida por tenerte...
